About PopPet the Robot

PopPet is a robot kit developed by Jaidyn Edwards. (You can find out more about PopPet here: http://www.poppettherobot.com/)

In collaboration with Jaidyn, I made this app for PopPet. This app was designed for use with PopPet 2.0, but can be used with the original Kickstarter PopPet if you add a Bluetooth module.

This app is completely free for you to download and use. It contains no ads or in-app purchases.

The app lets you:
- Drive PopPet around using direction buttons
- Drive PopPet around using an analog stick
- Give PopPet voice commands
- Have PopPet drive around autonomously and explore

The artwork in the app was created by Jaidyn Edwards. The app code is built upon the work I did in my MobBob and Sphero Companion apps.

To use this app, PopPet needs to be running my custom Arduino code. You can download it from here: https://github.com/cevinius/PopPet/

In additional to this Arduino code, you'll need to have a Bluetooth module on your PopPet! (For Kickstarter PopPets, you will need to add this yourself. I believe a bluetooth module comes with PopPet 2.0.)

Note that you should also be able to use this app with other differential drive robots (besides PopPet)! To do that, you'll need to adapt my Arduino code for your robot. For more information about this, please check out this article from my blog: http://www.cevinius.com/2015/10/30/app-powered-poppet/

Also, if you ask me questions there, I'll try to help.

Note: The voice recognition functionality makes use of Android's speech recognition functionality. You need to be online to use it. Also, your phone's language needs to be set to English. To test if voice recognition is set up on your phone, check if it's working in other apps. For example, perform a Voice Search in Google Now. If it's working there, it should work in this app.
